Chapter 141: Enigmatic and Intriguing

iful woman. They were constantly drinking and smoking."Congratulations, Guang Shao, on winning another big project. In the future, please continue to look after us!" said that tall young master as h..."The gatekeepers of the capital city, radical figures," the judge continued.

He came to investigate the case, so most of his energy was focused on finding the black official, but at that time, the black official had already disappeared.

"That shouldn't make Hei Gong an S-class fugitive, should it" Lu Yue frowned again.

“The capital city gave him a deadline, so after pretending to investigate for half a year, he submitted a so-called closing statement to the capital.” The judge continued with a slightly disdainful expression.

"The conclusion of the text is that, after investigation, this case involved collusion between black officials and outsiders to frame the master of Shadow Gate and four other blades. Their purpose was achieved, and they subsequently fled in fear of punishment!"

From then on, Hei Gong was not only put on Yingmen's S-class wanted list but also became a key target of the Special Patrol Division!

"Is that okay" Lu Yue was speechless.

"The truth about the matter is known only to Hei Gong. No one else knows what happened!" The Judge continued.

"He wrote it that way at the time, and it was hard for anyone to find evidence to prove him wrong. After all, only Hei Gong was left alive, and he was nowhere to be found."

"Alright!" Lu Yue was speechless again.

After finishing the closing argument, that person returned to the capital city. It is said that he was promoted twice upon his return!

"As expected!" Lu Yue shrugged.

This is a common tactic used by powerful families. They use special events to help their younger generation secure political capital. It's perfectly normal!

"That concludes the preliminary investigation of this case." The Judge continued.

"And from then on, the competition for a new leader of the Shadow Gate heated up!"

It is said that back then, several influential families in the capital city jointly nominated a few individuals to be the Master of Shadow Gate and the Five Blades.

However, later in the game of strategy, he lost out a little because several elders highly recommended his older brother to be the master of Yingmen.

Of course, although the landed gentry lost this round, the upper echelons made significant concessions in other areas to balance their emotions. For instance, they granted them considerable influence over institutions like the Special Patrol and the Imperial Court, which can be considered a satisfactory compromise.

"These influential families are truly ruthless in their pursuit of goals!" Hearing this, Lu Yue naturally understood the gist.

"Human greed knows no bounds, like a snake swallowing an elephant. There will always be retribution!" The judge took a deep breath and continued.

After my big brother was appointed as the head of the Shadow Gate, I and four others, including Cang Lang, entered the Shadow Gate under his arrangement.

"The capital city simultaneously gave the eldest brother a mission, with a deadline of two years to capture and bring Black Gong to justice!"

"Although Yingmen hasn't found the black public these years, it should have investigated some information, right" Lu Yue nodded slightly and asked.

"Better than nothing!" he shook his head in response. "The other party was obviously well-prepared. Apart from the unexpected black cat, all clues were severed."

"Does the black man have any suspicion" Lu Yue continued, "Why is he the only one who survived"

"Although we don't know why, we can be certain that this has nothing to do with him, he is just a victim." The judge responded.

"Then why doesn't he stand up and make the truth public" Lu Yue frowned slightly.

"Who knows!" The judge shrugged again. "Perhaps it's because the other party is too powerful, he's worried that if he shows up, he'll be silenced before he can even speak!"

"Alright, stop all this speculation and confusion. Just find the person and ask them." At that moment, Ling Hao spoke in a contemplative tone.

After finishing his words, he looked at the judge and continued to ask, "Where is the person now"

"In a village nestled at the foot of a mountain, four hours' drive from Dongzhou, it was said that he had been holed up there for two or three years," the Judge responded.

"He's really good at hiding!" Ling Hao's eyes narrowed slightly.

"By the way, big brother, I haven't had a chance to report to you about the Moge incident last time." The judge seemed to have suddenly remembered this.

"Besides those few windows facing outwards, did you manage to find out any other useful information" Ling Hao nodded slightly and asked.

The Mògué is extremely mysterious to outsiders, and even the Yǐngmén has very limited information about it. Since they finally caught the fish that was Mrs. Pétala, they naturally want to find a way to get some information out of her.

"There's very little useful information here!" the judge shook his head.

"The Mògé has a set system for managing its members, referring to the management model of ancient civil and military officials. Members are managed along two lines: literary and martial."

"So-called civil officers are in charge of information gathering and handling external affairs, while military officers are professional assassins."

Of course, civil servants don't necessarily mean they are not martial artists. They are just slightly less skilled in martial arts compared to military officers.

"Members of the household maintain strict hierarchical management, with little interaction between peers."

Different levels have different access to information, and even at the same level, those belonging to different categories within a group will have vastly different knowledge.

"Lady Peony belongs to the Wenxian sequence. Her position in Moge is not high, she is only responsible for managing the external windows in the east district."

And those who worked at the windows facing outwards all belonged to the extra-staff of Mo Ge, and knew even less information.

"As expected of a killer organization with hundreds of years of history!" Lu Yue said with a hint of admiration after hearing the Judge's words.

"Did you find out about her superiors" Ling Hao nodded slightly before asking.

"He's here." The judge nodded. "But it's just a code name, for a woman named Qing Zhu."

"As for information about the other party, Madam Peony knew very little. It was the other party who had contacted her first, and she did not have any way to contact them."

"Do they usually communicate through mobile phones" Lu Yue asked.

"The Moge, just like our Yingmen, connect with each other through their unique terminal devices. Outsiders find it very difficult to locate them." The Judge shook his head in response.

"That's interesting!" Ling Hao's eyes narrowed once more.

"Let's not worry about them for now; they should come to us eventually. Just tell the guys below to keep an eye out over the next little while."

Shadow Gate opened so many external windows for Mo Ge this time, the other party definitely won't let it go and will find them sooner or later!

"Received!" the judge nodded in response.

At 2 p.m., three people arrived at their destination.

This is a farmers' market located at the foot of a mountain, surrounded by several villages, about ten to twenty kilometers away from the nearest city.

After getting off the car, they looked around. The market was neither big nor small. Perhaps because it had passed the peak shopping hours for vegetables, there weren't many people in the market.

According to Yan He's statement, the fugitive is now using the name Li Kai and buying pork at the Agricultural Products Market.

"Are you really going to drive me to the brink"

Just as the three of them were walking towards the meat section, a woman's voice, tinged with crying, rang out.quan: "Are you here to give me money""He's a real tiger cub who's afraid of nothing!" Cao Dongquan took another puff of his cigarette."You know In the last ten years, very few people have dared to spe...
